Our Services


At Oak Consult we pride ourselves on helping businesses of all sizes be the best they can be. Our core services are:

Business Strategy FormulationBusiness Strategy and Planning

Strategic planning is critical to business success. Different from classic business planning, it involves a deeper understanding of the DNA of your organisation. Strategic planning describes where you want your company to go, not necessarily how you’re going to get there. However, like all other “travel plans”, without knowing where you want to go, creating details on how to arrive are meaningless. Strategic planning defines the “where” that your company is heading.

As critical as business planning is to the success of your company, all plans are useless unless followed by action. An additional side benefit of strategic planning is the natural action plan that stems from identifying your preferred strategy. While strategic planning involves your vision, mission and dreams, it also further defines the rudiments of your action plan to achieve the results you want.

Working with Oak Consult we’ll guide you through the process and support you and your teams in formulating a robust strategy and plan for your business.

Marketing Strategy and PlanningMarketing Strategy and Execution

A marketing strategy is something that every single business, no matter how big or small, needs to have in place. Many business owners are hesitant to set up an actual marketing strategy because they simply don’t know how to. It’s not what they’re good at or enjoy! This approach means simply trying something new every week or month, whether it’s Tweeting one week or running an ad in the paper the next week. Business owners who use marketing in this way are simply using different forms of marketing in hopes that one turns out to be profitable.

For a truly effective marketing strategy you must study and evaluate your business and its target audience, then create a plan of action and follow through with it.

That’s where Oak Consult can help.

We help you evaluate your business from a customer’s or end user’s point of view and discover what they truly get from your organisation. Many business owners are surprised to find that it’s not what they actually thought. We also look at the demographics of your customer base and the types of customers you are trying to attract or retain.

The next part of creating a great marketing strategy is finding out what your company offers that no other company does. So whether you offer the lowest prices, the best customer service, or promotions whenever customers shop at your store, this must not only be included in your marketing strategy, it must be a part of every aspect of marketing you do. Just make sure that whatever magic you’re promising your customers, that you can deliver on it.

A good marketing strategy is essential for every business to have. We’ll help you build a clear direction as to where you should go with your marketing efforts and will give you a better understanding of what marketing methods are going to reach your customers in the exact manner that you were hoping for. We even offer a range of Direct Marketing and Social Media Management services to support those new to the world of social media.
